if you can use python 3.3 and later, you could use the built-in lzma module

first download/install PyLZMA. In your program, use it as described here. And to create a zip, you can use the zipFile-module of the standard-library, which works as follows:
# open the zip file for writing, and write stuff to it
file = zipfile.ZipFile("test.zip", "w")
for name in a_demo_list_of_files:
file.write(name, os.path.basename(name), zipfile.ZIP_DEFLATED)
file.close()
Hope it helps!
